How would I or Can I set up the GoDaddy app in make to trigger when there is an order on my website?
The point of this is to have an order come in and make/godaddy is triggered causing it to wait 10 mintues and send an email as a thank you.
Hi @Max11 and welcome to the Make Community!
If I understand correctly, you want the GoDaddy app to trigger a Make webhook so the user gets a thank you automatically. I did a quick search and it doesn’t look like the GoDaddy app has that a bility. But I did not dig.
This probably means that you need to create a scheduled scenario on Make that runs periodically. Not that if you want a quick response, that might be costly in terms of operations. You can schedule a run every minute, which is 60 x 24 times per day. That’s more than 1200 operations just for checking. It will consume more if there is something to do.
Another thing you can see is whether the thank you process of the order can call a web page and maybe you can have the website trigger Make when an order goes through. You could do this with a redirect. But I’m not sure what the best approach would be if you were forced to do that.

Thaank you very much for responding. I am sorry if I was not clear before. Then I am confused as to why make.com has a spot for “Make an API Call” on the GoDaddy module? I am not planning on running it every minute. I have that part figured out. Is there a way to do this or is there a workaround?
I see your workaround. If I am understanding you correctly, you want me to use the web module and have that connected to make?
Also I double and triple checked how to set up the API for the orders on GoDaddy and use make AI’s to try to check as well.
Your use of the API is incorrect. It should start with “/v1/”:

As for my workaround, something has to trigger the scenario.
In make, it can be with a schedule, i.e. make runs your scenario ever X minutes/hours/days… Or on a schedule (every Monday 15th of the month, etc.).
The other way is that it runs instantly when something calls your webhook URL. That something can be a program, a webhook call after submitting a form, etc.

Thank you and I have tried both work arounds. I did use the GoDaddy/Make webpage to set up the API. I did try the webhook but also said 404. So I am guessing the I set it up wrong. I looked at the Go Daddy API again and noticed something different than what the webpage has. I have uploaded the Images. I will try to connect to each one and see which one works. I will let you know if it works or not. I also have search the internet and there is very little on make.com and godaddy. Just FYI
Tried both ways and both API ways and they do not work. I have already done the make.com training with the link you sent me but thank you. I know the the entire url is correct with /v1/invoices because it says on make.com. I even checked the …/v1/… with GoDaddy. I do not know what I am doing wrong.
I do appreciate you trying to point me in the right area.
Hmmm… If you tried calling the webhook from an external application (with Python, curl, or somthign else) and you’re getting a 404 error, then the problme is not with Make.
A couple of suggestions:
- Try to use postman to test your query. Postman can call sites directly and you can see if the problem is the way you are calling GoDaddy or if it’s a Make problem
- If you’ve never used Postman or tools like it, you can alway Hire a pro to help you
- Finally, if you think it’s a but with the Make module, you can ask support for some help
I’m not sure what’s happening. A 404 is an incorrect URL. I know that some site will also give that error if you pass an incorrect parameter. For example, if the API key is part of the GET url and you aren’t giving a valid key, you could get a 404 instead of another error.

I finally found how to do it. Thank you for the help. I plan on making a video and posting it to youtube about this for everyone.
